Christmas tree!

 

Picking out our Tree at the Boise Rescue Mission Lot - free popcorn and candy canes!

 

The kids were SO EXCITED to help decorate the tree and Sam helped dad with the star on top!

 

 Showing off their new ornaments and Christmas PJ's - Sam with Dusty the crop duster (from Planes) and Ava with Sofia the First

 

The tree is all finished.... and Ava has already managed to change back into a Princess Dress (her standard attire at home!)

 

Things are going downhill over here!!!

 

When we don't feel good, for some reason, building a "Nest" on the couch makes everything better.... and clean up easier for mom, if necessary!

SNOW DAY!!!

 

We got around 6 inches of snow on Thursday and Friday, which is a lot for Boise this early on!  No complaints here as the kids were SO EXCITED and no work or school meant a fun snow day!!!!

 

Mom, Sam and Ava built a ramp and sled track in the back yard to play on.

Ava, as usual, lives to eat the snow!!

 

Saturday morning, dad and the kids built a really cool fort - complete with a shelf full of ready-made snowballs!!!!
